Steering Damper Frame Mount

#1 Post by silverstrom » Sun Dec 03, 2017 2:35 am

These mounts are a follow up to the mounts I provided here http://www.rzrd500.com/500phpBB3/viewto ... =4&t=14105" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;



These are new and fresh from CNC. Material is 6061-T6 alloy. Hardware is stainless steel. Rod end hole is 8 mm. No anodizing on these. Most prefer to see the alloy.

See the link above for photos of the mount installed with a damper on my bike.

These are machined for RZ500 and RD500 frame.

Fitment is the same, but there have been some changes/improvements to the profile. It is difficult to see in the photos, but the inner surface of the outboard plate has multiple compound angles that require a lot of machining which takes a lot of CNC time. If you got one of these from me last time, you know what I mean.

The last photo shows a polished outboard plate for a bit of bling. I can provide this option for a slightly higher cost, or you can do it yourself.

The last batch were sold for around $150 Cdn at the then current exchange rate. These new ones were produced locally and at an increased production cost. 18 months after the first batch so everything costs more. These will be $200 Cdn each. Slightly more if you want the outer plate polished. Anyone not satisfied can return it for a refund. See the link to the last batch and ask the buyers what they think if you are concerned.

Payment by PayPal (+4% for fees) or e-transfer. I can ship these worldwide.

I have a limited quantity. If you are interested please contact me by PM or my email if you have it.

The photos do not show just how nice these are. I think you'll be very pleased. My CNC guy did an amazing job.

John

Sold. I have a damper so you just gave me something new to do. So you just have the raised area machined flat. Correct? PM me and thanks. All you guys have way more talent than me. Thanks for keeping up the good work.

Hi John, if it's OK with you I would also like one? I will e-transfer you the $200 CAD. Do you need extra $ to cover shipping costs? Also do you have an email address you want this sent to?

Thank you very much for doing this, these look great, hope to get one.

Thanks Paul.

Did you copy/paste the address? I don't see any email yet. Might just be a slower server night.
